The Pembroke Regional Hospital Foundation is excited to announce their 4th annual Community Challenge for Healthcare! From March 1st to March 31st, we challenge local individuals and businesses to become a "Healthcare Challenger" and support their Regional Hospital and local Healthcare in a fun, creative or competitive way of their choice with special recognition for their efforts!

 

“We have partnered with myFM who will be featuring the ‘Healthcare Challengers’ on the radio to announce their fundraising successes and give thanks for their support of local healthcare,” says Community Fundraising Specialist, Leigh Costello.

 

“A ‘Healthcare Challenger's’ goal is to raise funds in support of the greatest priority equipment needs at the Pembroke Regional Hospital which are not fully funded by the government. Funds raised from this year’s event will purchase two new patient beds for PRH,” says Executive Director of the Foundation, Roger Martin, who adds, “We are excited to see all the fundraising ideas people have, and to celebrate with them!”

 

Leigh Costello adds, “The fundraising ideas are endless! Last year we saw participation from local small and large businesses who held fundraisers such as donating a portion of sales from a specific product or for a specific time, collecting donations from customers at check out, holding a yard sale, anything goes.”

 

The Community Challenge for Healthcare is sponsored by these generous local businesses: Frank Carroll Financial, The Brick Pembroke, Roseburg Forest Products, Stephanie Hughes, MacEwen and myFM!

 

If you would like to join the challenge and raise funds as an individual, group or business throughout the month of March, please contact Community Fundraising Specialist, Leigh Costello at leigh.costello@prh.ca.
